Teacher's Day

**Teacher's Day in Venezuela** is celebrated annually on **January 15th** to honor and recognize the invaluable contributions of educators to the nation's development. This date commemorates the founding of the *Sociedad de Maestros de Instrucción Primaria* (Society of Primary School Teachers) in 1932, which later evolved into the *Federación Venezolana de Maestros* (Venezuelan Federation of Teachers). Teachers are celebrated for their dedication, hard work, and role in shaping future generations. Schools and communities often organize special events, ceremonies, and activities to express gratitude to educators. It is a day to reflect on the importance of education and the critical role teachers play in fostering knowledge, values, and progress in Venezuelan society.
